เกี่ยวกับ Karen Armstrong
Karen Armstrong was born in 1944 in Wildmoor, Worcestershire, England. She was a Roman Catholic nun for a time, and she graduated in English from Oxford (St Anne's College) during those years. She left the convent in 1969 and later taught literature at the University of London. Her writing looks at what the major religions have in common, including compassion and the Golden Rule. She won the TED Prize in February 2008 and used it to ask for a Charter for Compassion, which appeared the following year. Her books on faith include A History of God, Islam, and The Lost Art of Scripture.
